[C++] IDE Problem (Visual C++ 6)

[wolfulus]

hey guys, when i open a project with vc++ the syntax colors won't work for cpp files
for it work i need to rightclick on the cpp file(ide) then choose properties, so there i can change the type of syntax, but how can i make the ide color all the syntaxes on load?

another one:
when you are coding something, when you type something:: it appears a mini window showing the functions, vars and arguments in the 'something' class. in my vc++ it dont appears, how do i enable it? (code completion window, i dont know how is the name of this **)

Erm, use Dev-cpp instead? That does all that and more.. :icon6:

in dev-cpp the asm inline is a big ** to write... =/

What, Notepad and a command prompt don't work for you?

(I'm serious. That's what I use. No bloated "IDE"s for me!)

Mmm, I prefer my syntax's highlighted :) Though for most stuff I use NotePad++ or UltraEdit, just that little extra nodge of useability. Saves time if instead of alt-tab - arrow-up - enter I can just do F9 :)
